Rebels with a Cause (2013)

Director: Nancy Kelly
Run Time: 74 min.

"The film, in entertaining, brisk fashion, takes us through decades of patchwork agreements that made (and still makes) the San Francisco Bay Area the environmental envy of the world: a teeming urban area that co-exists with its magnificent scenery. . . . With the help of engaging interviews, excellent graphic maps and Lou Weinert's cinematography - his Bay Area landscape shots are beautiful - filmmakers Nancy Kelly and Kenji Yamamoto are able to translate what was essentially an incremental bureaucratic fight into cinematic terms."
—David Lewis, San Francisco Chronicle
